Liz Cheney: Conservatives may need a new party
The Hill ^ | 09/21/24 | Juliann Ventura

Posted on 09/22/2024 9:38:47 AM PDT by MinorityRepublican

Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) indicated in an interview at The Capital Times Idea Fest in Madison, Wisc., that conservatives could end up forming a new kind of conservative party, arguing that “far too much has happened that’s too damaging” in the Republican Party.

“There is certainly going to be a big shift, I think, in how our politics work — I don’t know exactly what that will look like. I don’t think it will just simply be… the Republican party is going to put up a new slate of candidates and off to the races,” Cheney, an outspoken Trump critic, told The New York Times’ Peter Baker.

“I think far too much has happened that’s too damaging,” she added.

When asked by Baker whether she was suggesting that conservatives unhappy with the current state of the GOP will have to create a new party, she said, “It may well be.”

Cheney, who said earlier this month that she would be voting for Vice President Harris in November, added that she thinks most Americans don’t want “someone like Donald Trump to be the president.”

Cheney, a critic of Trump, said her comments are based on her time traveling across the country and talking to Democrats, Republicans and Independent. A vocal opponent to Trump, Cheney’s bipartisan efforts crescendoed in her support for Harris.

She added that people “want a president that kids can look up to” and someone who will “defend the peaceful transfer of power.”

“That’s where we have to start, whether it’s organizing a new party,” she said.

I guess it would take too long to describe how false or misguided she is.

A lot of these “republican” women are really left wing democrats.

But at her level she can make a fortune being a false pos.

And her father was never this false to go communist. Tragic to see.

If Trump wins, one of the first things I am going to do is post multiple times on Liz Cheneys Twitter account a photo of a hand giving the middle finger. I - can’t - wait.

The concept of The Swamp necessarily labels people with a political history as unworthy of any respect and objects of disgust.

Obviously you can never expect any of them to address their being Swamp.

That’s what has destroyed her. Populism is Conservatism. This is a reality that is permanent and ends their lives as public figures.

Wait, she’s still trying to pretend she’s conservative? A conservative that supports and endorses a flipping communist broad that slept her way to the top? Wow.

This from a failed politician who doesn't have a "party":
She betrayed the GOP (if she ever was a conservative)
and the Democrat/Communist Party doesn't trust her (at least with anything important).

Ol' Lizzy -- as has her father -- has made herself irrelevant, poltically and socially irrelevant.

You’re a little slow there, Liz. We’ve created one...and you’re not welcome.

We are making one out of the ashes you left.

And you are not invited.

Liz and the Lincoln Project rejects do have a party fit for them.

The Whig party.

Both are as relevant today!

Lizzy, Conservatives have been slowly taking over the Republican party since it had no constructive use.

The media are more interested in Liz than Harris or Biden’s decline.

That should tell you all you need to know about the lack of journalists.
